Part 3 Questions 31-35 (5 marks)
A WALK ACROSS JAPAN
Mary King and Etsuko Shimabukuro completed a 7, 974-kilometer walk across Japan. Mary
takes our questions about their incredible accomplishment.
Why did you walk across Japan?
The mapmaker Ino Tadataka inspired me. He spent 17 years on and off walking through Japan.
He drew the country’s first real maps.
How long did it take?
A year and a half. We walked from the island of Hokkaido, in the north, down to Okinawa. In
Hokkaido, we walked about 40 kilometers a day, and on the other islands, about 30. We often
had no choice about the distance because we had to find a place to sleep.
Describe a typical day.
There really wasn’t one, but we tried to start by 7:00 a.m. and walk for 10 to 12 hours.
Sometime we had breakfast on the road. We had to be careful in Hokkaido because the bears
twice, which was terrifying!
Did you walk every day?
No. we needed to do our laundry, check our email, and rest. Also, I wanted to interview people
for my blog.
What were some of the best parts?
There were many! We stayed in a haunted guesthouse, walked on fire at a festival, and visited
many wonderful hot springs.
Any low points?
You know, overall, we really enjoyed ourselves, but there were a lot of aches and pains along
the way. The traffic could be scary because there weren’t always sidewalks for pedestrians.
Did you ever think about giving up?
No, we never wanted to stop. Actually, I was sad when it ended. I wanted to walk from
Okinawa back to Tokyo, but Etsuko said we had to accept that we accomplished our goal. It
was time to go home.
Would you do it over again?
Definitely. I’d love to retrace our steps when I’m 80. But I’ve also set myself the goal of
walking across the U.K. or India someday.
